Okay, it's cold now . . . a little heat please!

posted by  someone claiming to be Nathaniel on  Wed Dec 12 03:15 CST 2001 [RELATED]

How typical, the snow starts flying and my fan motor decides to fly south for the winter. Problem . . . only operates on "5." Will not operate on speeds 1 through 4. Atleast I've got heat but, jeez-louise, not looking to burn my ass out of the car on every trip.

Could this be a resistor issue or simply a bad blower motor? If it is a resistor, how does a non-electrical type like myself identify and troubleshoot a suspected resistor? Or should I just forget about it and get a new one with the blower motor?

As always, thanks in advance.
